Best Figured Poems

I am a full figured woman
inside and out
Embracing my shape
as each curve tells her own story

My head you no longer enter
my heart you can not break
now you mad I no longer give,
SO...."ha ha" now you can no longer take

I am a full figured woman
inside and...

the line straight, turning the globe
dark and then darker colors passing by
the vivid stream, covering the sun from her
indecency

the day a dank, gray stare
through the glass left over from the last
hurricane

maybe I should go outside and
listen awhile

But, I am worried.  I'm goddamn sick
the rain...

and all of a sudden
time stood still
as if to laugh at me

It's kind of like when a dog mindlessly chases a car down the street.
Perhaps it's pure instinct, or a childish need.
Gas is to engine,
as honey is to bee.
Instincts exists inside the mind,
from doubts to beliefs.

A blink of an eye,
the jerk of a knee,
beat of the...

AUTISTIC

You want me to figure you out...
Well, I ask you, did you yourself?
Have you figured out YOU?
I am still young, I know, and I can
Analyze inanimate objects
Write blogposts, essays and poems
Occupy myself endlessly with a 
twirling thing catching sunlight.
But figuring someone out is not
one of...

You're a metaphor
      Unfamiliar, expressing 
               Familiarity!

Contest for Richard Lamoureux

What does this man mean to me?
A face in the world I will never see.

We are probably alike,
we might even hit it off.
He's got eclectic taste and no condescending scoff.
No judgement in his eyes 
but wonder in his soul
looking for poetic alms...

I did marry a full-figured girl
with sweet luscious red lips,
and, oh yeah, the right sized hips


 I so enjoy her blonde curl
and she stands out in room
 I sure love her perfume


She often whispers in my ear,
and I  like it when 
she'll bring me...

Eventually i

As naive

/

Stupid as i is

Exposed and solved the clues

Not that they we're in fact

In any way well hidden

Or disguised

My personality lends
itself to being used

I am simply as i appear
to other's

Of use to picking up those
around

In need of such a sap as i

Only to find...

One can travel, many places, and step foot, no where,
right there, in the being, of one's mind, heart, and soul.
Amongst the depths, from the experiences, once lived,
that made us, either heart broken, or extremely whole.

Our strength is gained, along every turn, upon the road,
realizing regardless,...

Sun angles in on the room just so
There's a strip of light on the floor for my dog
Sirens outside if you pay attention
AC doing its best
Nothing in the fridge
But condiments and expired takeout
No money to shop for food
Finish my book
Stare at the wall
Is this what...

I am a writer
I decided the day after
I got my hair
cut.

So that's what I do now
Eschew and eschew.  Wow,
Can somebody tell me how
to stay right here in the now

and not be distracted
by bills and high taxes
and grandmother needing her hair done
while grandpa plays golf?

It...

I have finally figured out,
Why wisdom mostly comes with age.

As we get older, most of us spend more time,
Sitting on the throne,
And for most of us,
That is where we do our best thinking,
And philosophizing.

I wonder if King Charles will become more wise,
Now he has an...

I want to call it, Shaking the Baby 
If I ever get the smarts, it’ll be tasty 
Stupid I know not worth anything 
Besides the slander and pain 
How about a May Day 
911 calls are busy in action 
These communities dividing into faction 
Is...
